AEIOU (feat. Joe Got Beats)

A, I struggle every day to find my way
My anxiety keeps me locked away
My mind won't free me
It's like I'm stuck in a mental cage

E, Why get outta bed when I can go to sleep
I can take a chance but it'll hurt me
Life's a nightmare but I stay tryna chase a dream

I will never win the race against time
Dreams and reality don't align
I'm telling the truth
No need to lie

Oh oh oh
Tried to stay I can't, I got to go go go
Life ain't fair, my momma told me so
No one to save me
Got to get it on my own

Eww
I thought I found my happiness in you
Another failed relationship for blues
I'm the one holding on
But it takes two

See, all the odds be against me
I'm older now so I'm stronger now
Couldn't take a whole nation just to hold me down
I been around
You never mentioned my name
Why I got to be left out and sometimes it's a shame
You put me in the middle
Periodically on the end
But on my yacht, I'm in the front y'all
That's where I begin
Drop me off in the back
Depolarize and fill those empty spaces
I lift my hands from graduating from you lower cases
You still got to say my name, no matter what your race is
Lets face it, voting couldn't erase this
Basics
A E I O U
I learned to move in silence in this grammatical violence
You couldn't define me with human logic or science
It ain't no use for da tryin
Its just my truth, I ain't lying
Don't let me loose I'm the lion
I figure though you had to never try
Rewind me to hear all the reasons why

There ain't nothing more you can do for me
I got to figure this shit out on my own
Those bright stars are worth trying to reach
Even if I never ever leave the ground

I don't know who I am but I do know who I wanna be
Just can't let my past tell my future what its gonna be
They don't understand all the pressure that's up under me
They say that I can't but I won't let that shit bother me
